I thought the U.S. versions came with the Ecotec engine and everywhere else gets the Type R motor. That srt-4 must have had a 42R.

If the guy driving the Evo would have pulled out of the AWD drift on the turn arround a lil earlier I think he would have won. Either way, the Atom didnt beat it by much. If it didnt have 2 seats like the Atom, the Evo would have killed it. IMO anyways.

Side note: I wonder what clutch they are using over there? Ever time I see a vid of an Brittish Evo, they are Drifting them. Clutch life must be really short.

Looks like those numb-tards have nothing else better to do with their time. I would take the fq320 over that ugly atom. Think about it, it won by less than half a sec. The evo has a full interior, ac, heat, stereo, trunk, seats 4 need I go on. As far as I care, the atom turns heads of older people while the evo attracts a younger crowd. This is for the atom
